Integrated photonic quantum chips have emerged as a promising platform for realizing fault-tolerant photonic quantum computers. Compared with bulk-optics systems, integrated photonics offer compact device footprints, enhanced programmability, and exceptional stability, attributes that are essential for executing large- …
Single-image, multi-image, and video deep research require different visual operations but share a workflow of visual grounding, external retrieval, and fact composition. A key challenge is to preserve the dependencies linking localized visual anchors, entity relations, source-supported facts, and answer-producing oper …
Face de-identification (FDeID) has emerged as a critical privacy-preserving technology, yet its evaluation remains fundamentally fragmented. Existing protocols rely on inconsistent metrics, heterogeneous datasets, and partial annotation coverage, so methods targeting different utility dimensions, such as landmark versu …
Reinforcement learning (RL) for post-training large language models (LLMs) incurs substantial computation and memory overhead during rollout generation, which motivates low-precision rollout for efficient RL training. However, existing FP4 RL methods suffer from a key limitation: they primarily optimize quantization ac …
Mainstream large language models rely on a tokenizer to encode text into a token sequence. Different tokenizers may yield token sequences of substantially different lengths for the same text. With a fixed model architecture, shorter token sequences correspond to lower inference time. We propose a tokenizer training app …
Looped Transformers reuse a shared block across recurrent depths, making autoregressive decoding expensive because every generated token requires many sequential recurrent passes. Self-speculative decoders reduce this cost by drafting at an early depth and verifying at full depth, but typically bind draft computation t …
